Giron vs Nishikori: Kei to advance further?
On July 27, Marcos Chiron will face Kei Nishikori in the second round of the Tokyo Olympics. What to expect from the upcoming match? Our answer is in the prediction below.
Command Analysis
Marcos Giron
USAGiron won the opening match at the current Tokyo Olympics in three sets of bitter struggle. In the first round Marcos defeated Norbert Gombos (7-6, 3-6, 6-2). We think that physically the American tennis player is well prepared for the Olympic Games, but he is very emotional, and that often prevents him from showing his best tennis. That makes us doubt that Giron will stay in the competition for long.
Kei Nishikori
JapanNishikori is very motivated to give his best performance at the home Olympics. In the first round, Kei rather unexpectedly won over Andrei Rublev, who is not in his best playing form right now. Nishikori defeated the Russian in two sets (6-3, 6-4). The Japanese tennis player already has one Olympic medal, and he probably would not mind winning another one, especially at home.
